Chapter 194: Forcibly crossing the Weishui

After Ding Qiang lost the Luoyu Pass, Li Lenian saved him for his past achievements, but Li Le was also reprimanded by Dong Zhuo for the loss of the Yuyu Pass, which made Li Le very resentful of him and slowly began to snub him. knew that if he didn't work hard to redeem his impression in Li Le's heart, he would be left out and abandoned. So these days, he offered a lot of gold and silver, made a lot of sycophants, and even went to the countryside to rob a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl to give to Li Le, but Li Le always behaved lukewarmly to him, which made him very uneasy. As Li Le's confidant (at least once), he saw Li Le's mind very thoroughly, and seeing the failure of the arrest operation, he immediately realized that his opportunity had come, a chance to regain Li Le's trust! So he found Li Le and said that he had a way to ruin Zhang Ji's reputation.

Li Le, who was furious about the failure of the arrest, secretly thought, if he framed himself, if the East Window incident happened in the future, he might not be able to escape death, since this is the case, why not let this Ding Qiang do it, anyway, no matter who does it, the final result will be the same, and in this way, his hands will not be dirty, even if the East Window incident happens in the future, he can also stay out of the matter as an unaware identity. What's more, Ding Qiang betrayed his trust, and he was also reprimanded for losing the important town, especially when he heard that Dong Zhuo had ordered himself to be killed after learning the news of the fall of Luoyu Pass, although the matter was over, he still regretted Ding Qiang's decision to protect Ding Qiang and deeply resented Ding Qiang. All this, he acquiesced to Ding Qiang's opinion.

Ding Qiang saw that his efforts had finally been rewarded, although Li Le did not agree, but he did not object, and Li Le also showed a smile to him, thinking that Ding Qiang would immediately go back to arrange "evidence" after his efforts were rewarded, but he didn't know that Li Le had already made up his mind, and if he failed, he would push all the things to Ding Qiang, sacrificing the small self and completing the big self. If it happens, Ding Qiang can't keep it, and he must find a way to solve it, so that the truth won't leak out.

Ding Qiang got Li Le's acquiescence, and immediately arranged for someone to buy a Zhang Ji's personal soldier at any expense, and imitated Liu Zhang's letter to Zhang Ji. Li Le immediately took the opportunity of Zhang Ji's gathering to discuss the matter, and secretly transferred Zhang Ji's guards around the tent, in exchange for his men, and then he suddenly attacked, surrounded Zhang Ji's tent, Zhang Ji knew that Dong Zhuo would not listen to his arguments, if he was taken will be unable to escape death, where is he willing to be captured, and his nephew Zhang Xiu, the fierce general Hu Che'er and dozens of personal soldiers desperately resisted, how could the enemy be outnumbered, after killing nearly 100 people, Zhang Ji was captured, Zhang Xiu saw that his uncle was captured, so he had to abandon his weapons and surrender with Hu Che'er. Li Le took control of the overall situation and immediately pretended to interrogate Zhang Ji, at this time, Ding Qiang immediately showed Liu Zhang's "letter" and the testimony of Zhang Ji's personal guards, everything showed that Zhang Ji had taken refuge in Liu Zhang, and when Liu Zhang's army was dispatched, he immediately raised troops and surrendered. Zhang Ji knew that he would die, so he didn't say a word, while Zhang Xiu and Hu Che'er broke the curse and scolded Li Le for framing Zhongliang......

Li Le was not angry when he was scolded, and sent someone to detain the three of them, preparing to escort the three back to Chang'an the next day and hand them over to Dong Zhuo. In order to prevent accidents, he has decided to arrange a "suicide in fear of crime" on the way to Chang'an......

Guo Jia said with a smile: "The most taboo in the battle of the army is to change generals before the battle, Dong Zhuo first used Yang Feng, and then changed to Zhang Ji, and now Zhang Ji has been captured again, Weibei has fallen into the hands of Li Le, if there are frequent changes of generals, the enemy army will have nothing to do, and the army's heart will be turbulent!" If the name is not right, it will not be good, if the word is not good, it will not be done, Li Le's name is not right, it will be difficult to control the overall situation, after dawn, when he finds out that our army is pressing, I am afraid that he is unable to command the troops to stop our army! ”

Xun You also said: "Yes, the opportunity must not be missed, and the loss is coming!" Li Le gave our army such an excellent opportunity, how could he miss it in vain! ”

Wei Yan bowed and said: "My lord, the army is ready, and we can board the ship as soon as the lord gives an order!" ”

"Ready to fly, I have to send it! The 1st Independent Infantry Brigade was confident that it would crush the defenders, gain a foothold on the north bank, and meet the army across the river! Gao Shun said.

Liu Zhang didn't expect the effect of the discord plan to be so good, originally he thought that Dong Zhuo would only put Zhang Ji in the air, and then ask the guilty in detail after the battle, but he didn't expect Dong Zhuo to make a stupid move, making his own army fight in the same room, didn't he give him the Weishui defense line in vain? Liu Zhang didn't know at this time that all this was completely Li Le's selfishness.

"I orderβ€”the army board!" Liu Zhang shouted.

"Order!" All the people bowed in unison.

Immediately, Gao Shun and Xiandu turned and left, and they will attack the north bank as the first landing force together with their army.

In order to achieve the suddenness of the attack, the south bank of Weishui was ordered to prohibit fireworks, and the first wave of attack troops, consisting of the main force of 15,000 people of the 4th Infantry Division and the 1st Independent Infantry Brigade, began to board the ships in the dark night. In the dark of night, some accidents inevitably occurred when boarding the ship, and some soldiers and troops got lost and boarded other people's ships; Some soldiers could barely distinguish the pale silver on the edge of the Wei River, and when they stepped on it, they plopped into the icy water; Some soldiers looked blankly around the night, trying to find the location of their troops; There are also people who are much smarter, and everyone pulls the clothes of the people in front of them and walks forward, but they don't know that the guide leads them into the ravine, and countless people fall into a ball like dumplings...... The chaos that occurred from time to time caused quite a commotion, but fortunately everyone remembered the orders of their superiors, and everyone kept their mouths shut, and did not arouse the alarm on the other side.

It took more than an hour for the soldiers to finally board the ship, but it was only after dawn that many people realized that the people around them had somehow become unfamiliar faces.

Chen Gong came to the handsome tent, saluted Liu Zhang in the center, and said, "Lord Qiqi, all the soldiers have boarded the ship and can set off at any time!" ”

"It's hard work, it's very chaotic!" Liu Zhang smiled and said.

"There was a lot of chaos, but fortunately, there was not much movement and did not attract the attention of the other side!"

"Well, how many hours are there until dawn?"

Chen Gong replied: "My lord, there is still about half an hour, do you want to untie the cable and set sail now?" ”

Liu Zhang shook his head: "The water surface is pitch black, and there are many ships in our army, it is easy to collide if you are not careful, and the soldiers of the Fourth Division and the First Brigade are not accustomed to water, if they fall into the water, they can't be rescued in the dark, wouldn't they be sacrificed in vain, wait, wait until dawn to act!" ”

"Yes!" Chen Gong answered and stood aside.

Liu Zhang looked up at the topographic map of Guanzhong in the commander's tent and fell into silence.

In a short time, the petty official in charge of the seasonal solar terms entered the account and reported, and the dawn was coming.

Liu Zhang looked around at the people in the tent and said in a deep voice: "Lone order, the attack begins!" ”

"Yes, the attack begins!" Chen Gong repeated and then turned and strode away from the tent.

"Everyone, how about going with Lone to watch the majestic posture of my Yizhou athletes?"

Everyone bowed and said: "The subordinates (the last general) are all obedient!" ”

Liu Zhang left the tent under the escort of Zhou Cang and Wu Ming, and a group of civilian, military and personal guards immediately followed.

In the east, a faint gray was spreading in the inkfountain-like sky, and the faint light did not seem to have much effect, and fifteen thousand soldiers and more than 2,000 men sailing boats were still waiting quietly in the dark night where it was difficult to see five fingers.

Liu Zhang and his party came to a slightly higher place in the camp, and their eyes all shot to the north, and everyone wanted to do their best to see the situation on both sides of the Weishui River through the thick inky night, which was of course just a migration.

After Chen Gong left the tent, he immediately walked to the nearly 100 heralds who had been waiting for a long time, and said loudly: "The lord has an order, the attack begins, you wait to immediately send an order to the whole army, and the whole army will set off at the end of the day!" ”

"Order!" The herald replied in a low voice, bowed and quickly left.

After a while, the gray and white of the east began to spread, and the white like the fish belly appeared in the sky, and without the help of firelight, things within two or three zhang could be vaguely seen, and at this time, the time had come.

With the orders of countless generals, on the south bank of Weishui, thousands of boats set off together, and one by one boats and rafts plunged straight into the north shore like arrows from the string. Although Liu Zhang, who is more than two miles away, can not see the situation on the water, but listening to this continuous loud noise, he can fully imagine how the river is a magnificent and spectacular situation, he is happy but also for the soldiers who went out to bear the heart, it is obvious, such a huge sound he can hear, the defenders on the other side can not hear, once the enemy army launches an effective defense, the first wave of soldiers who lack the support of trebuchets, bed crossbows and other weapons will undoubtedly fall into a bitter battle......
